I wonder if Clemson and Florida State still think they deserve an invitation to the SEC or B1G.

1:00PM would be the perfect kickoff time for the run-of-the-mill game. The networks make it work for the NFL so I'm not sure why they're set on forcing noon starts on college football.
I know I'm in the minority but I love noon kicks. Couldn't be happier for the International NFL games when football starts at 9 or 10. The only reason I'd want to live on the west coast is to have football from 9a-midnight

That’s part of the appeal of Premier League soccer, 07:30 and 09:30 kickoffs. I’m looking forward to the Vikings-Steelers game in Dublin tomorrow.

I don't know what to make of Illinois, or of USC.

The Illini got destroyed last week, and look vastly overrated. I think they were ranked #8 heading into last week's game against Indiana. And yet, today they're up 31-17 on USC, and look excellent, while ranked #23.

USC came into the game 4-0, and rated #21. They seemed to be pretty good this year, but look overmatched, on both sides of the ball, against Illinois.

Edit: And now USC marches down and gets a TD and s 2-point conversion, so the Illini are only up by 6 points.

In the ACC, if fans storm the field before the teams and the officials have exited, it's a $50,000 fine for the 1st offense, $100,000 for the 2nd offense, and $200,000 for the 3rd offense. I don't think UVA has had any reason to have prior offenses (I believe the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd are over a 2-year period, and then they reset to zero), so that will be a $50,000 fine to UVA (the storming the field fines go into the ACC's scholarship fund).
